Everyone knows that Las Vegas can be expensive, but it doesn’t have to be. There are so many free activities in Vegas! It’s easy to stick to your budget when you take advantage of the freebees. If you know me, then you know that I like free! I am pretty frugal, so anything that will help me experience more by spending less, I am in! I was able to take advantage of many of the free attractions in Vegas. Many of the attractions made my trip!

Did you see the new “big Ferris wheel” going up? I can’t wait! But that won’t be free of course.
I LOVE VEGAS!!!
AND it unfortunately loves me and my $. I can’t seem to win more than I go with. *sigh.
Yes I did! They are building it directly behind the Flamingo where I was staying! I would love to ride that. The view would be amazing! Did you see my post from yesterday on Vegas? You would like it if you like Vegas! 🙂
I love love love Vegas.
I have been so many times. Like one year, I went 3 times. I haven’t stayed at the flamingo but I’ve seen shows there. I had to take a break from Vegas. Seriously. Lol.
Yeah I bet. I know I needed a break after Vegas and I was there for only one week. When are you going again?
…..uh…..
When do you want to go again????!!!!
😬
hahaha I am going again in November! 🙂
Thanks for sharing. I never knew.
No problem! I like free!
Good to know! But I have a feeling I would throw away my wallet in Vegas no matter what, haha. Thanks for posting this 🙂
You got it, but at least some things are free! Save up because you will spend the money in Vegas! Where is your next destination?
For sure! My next destination will be the east coast of Turkey and the capital Istanbul. And what is yours?
Oh wow, that sounds amazing! I just arrived in Sacramento, the capitol of California. After that, I will be heading to Hawaii.
South coast*
wow so exciting to read about your trip dear..I might go to Vegas this xmas as I would be in LA and Miami for xmas and new year as part of my bucket list. so much good info here on ur blog about it..did u do a tour? or how did u travel around dear? as I don’t drive so I am thinking may be tour would be a good option 🙂
So exciting! Great bucket list items and Christmas would be an excellent time to visit.
I did not do a tour. I flew into Las Vegas from my town and have been taking local transportation to get around (greyhound bus, busses, and subway). I decided I did not want to rent a car to travel around to not have that additional stress and have been enjoying no worries.
great ..thanks a lot dear…I would let u know how it goes 🙂
